Really good value for money, nice room, excellent breakfast. My vegetarian breakfast was pipping hot and delicious, so really enjoyed it. Very pleased to see decaffeinated tea offered in the room. The only downside was noisy doors from neighbouring rooms in the Cottage, but this settled down by 10pm.

Absolutely no complaints at all! A real pleasure to spend the night here. Excellent room, quiet and a comfy bed. Food astonishingly good, as was the service - and price. A must if you are coming to this area. Thank you.

Very Very Pleasant
Staff were so welcoming when we arrived and we were quickly shown to our rooms which were in immaculate condition. Huge shower and bathroom in the garden room we had and a sky tv was a lovely touch for a sports mad man! Breakfast was of a high quality and served to order. We will definitely be back.

Great Overnight Stay
I stayed here for an overnight business trip. The room was great, very clean and very modern, particularly the shower room, which was very nice. Sky tv in the rooms is also a bonus. The rooms are separate to the pub itself so were quiet. Breakfast was excellent with a choice from the normal breakfast menu, plus toast, cereals, etc. I will stay again when in that area

In the bathroom the vanity mirror above the sink was fixed far too high for a lady of 5’ 2” to see more than the top of her forehead !!!! Very annoying! The food was good, particularly the breakfasts. Apart from that we enjoyed our stay at The Castle Inn, Bramber.

Good location and very friendly staff but overall experience let down by poor quality of the bedroom. Dated furnishings and hard beds not of quality shown in photos on booking sites particulraly given that the room was described as superior.

Classy stay at the Castle
Location, accommodation, food, atmosphere were all excellent. Only issue was not opening window in room (disabled) and as such, it was very warm. The fan helped, but air-con or an external flow of air woudl have helped through the night.

Nice hotel at a reasonable price in a lovely village overlooked by the remains of a castle. Friendly staff, decent pub grub for dinner at slightly over-inflated prices and an OK breakfast (improve the bacon please). Rooms are reasonable for the price.

Had a very pleasant stay for 1 night while in the area on business. Staff were excellent and especially Debbie who looked after me well at 6.15am when officially breakfast was not available until 7am, thank you Debbie!! Only 'negative' comment - the ensuite could do with some modernising, otherwise, a lovely place to stay and great value too! :-)

Great Looking Hotel, Cheap Looking Room
Hotel looked amazing. Room looked cheap. Nasty chipboard furniture. “Double” bed with a big dip in the middle. Paper thin walls so I heard every fart from the room next door. Useless shower with no power and wild temperature fluctuations. Place had an iron but not a steam iron. To be fair to the owner he emailed asking why I didn’t enjoy my stay and I didn’t hold back. He replied that his hotel didn’t always suit everybody. Seems I was in that category. So if you like a bad shower, thin walls and an uncomfortable bed with 1970s furniture, book a night here!

The staff were friendly, good humoured and professional. Stayed two nights in room 5 which was fine. Second visit (same week) I stayed two nights in room 15. The 'bathroom' was the width the toilet which had no toilet brush. The tiny shower was of equal width. The small sink (about 7 inches wide) looked like vegetables had been cleaned in it as the bowl and tap were muddy. The bowl was almost cleaned when I washed in it but the tap was still dirty next day even though the bed had been made up. There was a glass shelf above the sink which prevented bending over it to clean teeth. Disappointing as room 5 was good.
